The cocktail menu changes every 6 months and this time it was famous pirates of history themed. Cocktails themselves were incredible. During the week sometimes they have live music and I'm planning to go back for that!!!! Loved it!

3.5/5 stars. Went back to Blue Door to give it another chance with the new menu... it's still my…read moreleast favorite cocktail bar in all of charlotte. The menu this time is theme park theme... again, a fun concept but not well executed. Pretty overwhelming, especially with the bartenders explaining the menu to us twice with the same spiel there is too much to look at it makes it difficult to pay attention to the drinks. I really did not love my drink (starbreaker?) you could only taste the lychee The bartenders not a vibe, it was not that comfortable to sit at the bar. They now serve food, hotdogs... which do NOT match the vibe at all, so that was interesting that their only food (other than the free popcorn) is not hot dogs..

They have a bunch of different weekly things that go on here such as movie nights and so on. This is not a bar where guys can be dude bros this is definitely where the girls come to gossip and have little snacks and I love everything about that. The only men I saw here were with women and I think that was 3 including mine ABSOLUTELY coming back with friends and ordering a bunch of appetizers and drinks everything here looks as good as it tastes and the drinks are strong! The staff here is super sweet and just lovely

They've been here 2.5 years and from my first experience , they are absolutely crushing it. Dim lighting, beautiful bar design in a smaller space, and 90's-2000's hip hop was the perfect mix for a chill Friday night. Niaget took care of us at the bar (please forgive me if I got the spelling wrong!) and she is clearly a well trained mixologist. Cocktail menu is unique and the ingredients might seem a little far out, but trust the process. The drink pictured below was a bourbon-based (Old Forrester) custom cocktail that Niaget threw together. Hints of pineapple & mint mixed with my favorite brand bourbon made this an honest treat. I will be tossing this cocktail bar onto my favorites list and can't wait to go back.

This is a review for brunch on Saturday, July 6, 2024. I was in town visiting my family, and I…read morepicked this venue to go to Brunch. When we arrived, I liked that the windows were tinted, and you couldn't see inside. When we arrived inside, I informed them that I was there for brunch for a party of 7. I made an rsvp on Eventbrite. We were seated immediately. Our server's name was Dallas. She gave us the brunch menu. The options were limited. There were 5 entrees, 4 appetizers, and some sides. This venue was newly opened a couple of weeks ago and black owned, so we decided to stay. I ordered a prosecco, and it tasted flat, so I switched to a Taste Berry cocktail. The cocktails were delicious, and I had several. The food did take a while to come out, and all the food didn't come out all at once. I ordered the taste chops & potatoes. The lamp chops were well seasoned and tasty. The dish overall was excellent, and I would order it again. Some of the other dishes ordered in my party were the creole style shrimp & grits and the salmon croquettes & grits. They enjoyed the food. The only thing that I informed wasn't great was the waffles that were ordered from the sides menu. There was a DJ, and he really did a great job playing a variety of music. Our Server Dallas was very attentive. I loved the interior of the venue, the floors, the bar area, excellent interior decorating. It was a great vibe, and I had a great time. I plan to visit again in the future while visiting again.

But to make the customer pay for it is ludicrous. We got one drink and the bill was $63 for 2 drinks.

However please stay away from a bartender named Rae she unprofessionally approach my date and told her she should rethink her time and that she wasn't safe.

Thankfully our night ended amazing but someone from upper management needs to address this behavior as it was completely unprovoked unprofessional behavior.

It has an upscale yet relaxed ambience that will remind you of Bridgerton with its royal flair. We went in the evening so the lounge was very dim, which was expected. The staff was very friendly, accommodating, and attentive. No complaints there.
